Like, don't get me wrong- the RPG Maker official forums can be a place with a plethora of details and assistance when looking for help in game making, and new developers shouldn't have to feel scared to reach out on there if they need the help- i just wish the community in charge was a bit less...strict?? aa i dunno man

i know I've stated otherwise, but if I'm being honest: using the RPG Maker forums can be pretty intimidating imo. Maybe it's me being on the spectrum, but a lot of replies I would get as a beginner using RPG Maker for the first time would get me really snarky and condecending comments when I asked very basic/entry level questions. Some threads I had to close early because I was being berated so often;;

so, er... just be wary, I guess? ): at least this has been my experience. Although, I have seen similar experiences when searching similar topics from new members. u _ u;
i was just abt to comment on your page about your last status. i srsly hate gatekeepers, esp for attempting to gatekeep one of the most accessible forms of gamedev. whenever i see ppl being rude or condescending like that, i seriously roll my eyes. THEY are the cringe ones for taking the time to troll the RPGMaker forms. total losers
yeah i don't use the forums anymore because of this. if you ever need help, you can always dm me and i can ask other dev friends. i've always been too scared to use the RPG maker forums bc people just seem so unhappy to help :<
@aquariumaesthetic Aw, thank you sm for your kind words! I saw a user who was brand new to the engine, looking for genuine help and someone claimed they must be trolling because they were asking such open-ended questions.. and it was a really recent post too- which made me really sad that users are STILL like that for new people just trying to figure things out ): ;;;
@ophanimkei thank you for the offer, I really appreciate it!! I'm so thankful to the assistance of you and other users from the server that help in that regard- I haven't used the forums to post questions in a year or so now because of my experiences, but it seems they're still very condescending when it comes to asking things that they deem "basic knowledge" for RPG Maker;; idk im just an old person!! ; _ ;
Hello! I've added a new page to my Gamedev page: This time, exploring plugins! I'm not the best at plugins info, and a lot of it features outgoing links, but these are ways I've learned how to use them ;w;/ I hope it's somewhat cohesive haha;; Thank you! Stay safe!

Also, a lot of what I've covered applies to RPG Maker MV. The process is similar in MZ, but be aware that some MV plugins may not work properly in MZ. Try the Project FOSSIL plugin by FOSSIL TEAM over on the official RPG Maker forums!!
New page added! Includes details on my messy way of starting a new game in RPG Maker. Hope you're all doing well! I might go back and tweak some wording on the page itself for redundancy fixes, but I think it gets the point across. Stay safe! :>
